In the partnership, Mayo Clinic is expected to play an important part in the evolution of the technology to improve breast imaging across various imaging modalities.

The ICE Reveal visual intelligence software involves no additional exposure to radiation and is claimed to be capable of being a safe and effective tool against breast cancer.
